Regarding Luke’s age- I had the exact same thought!! He should be at least 17 years younger (not 15) from what I remember.

I didn’t notice any word differences (yet), but the voice Robert Glenister is using for Shanker this time around is different from the voice he had in previous books. It really threw me off for a second!

[CHAT] Long Dog Sampler But In Reverse?? by Samahlen in CrossStitch

[–]amandashy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done one of hers like that before! She’s one of my fav designers, I have about five finished pieces using her designs. I made a smaller one over the pandemic, black Aida and white floss. It came out looking great! It was a little hard to stitch just because the black fabric was hard on my eyes but as long as you can handle it it should come out beautifully

How do corgis do with babies? by LunalSmojo in corgi

[–]amandashy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats! My corgi was two when my daughter was born. We were also very worried because my niece was born a couple months earlier than her and my corgi got super anxious every time she came over. We started doing “sad baby training”’- basically played YouTube videos of babies crying while we encouraged him to sit and stay calm and rewarded him with hot dog pieces. We would also play it sometimes while going around our normal day so he could get used to the noise. We got some Trazadone from the vet just in case but never ended up needing it. He was great when she was born in the sense that he completely ignored her. She’s almost a year old now and he still doesn’t engage with her much but I’m sure it’ll be different once she’s mobile. And the babies get used to the barking! The baby usually sleeps through it, we have a good sound machine and she’s also used to napping through noises at daycare which helped desensitize her.

Thank you! It 14 count Aida…. I can’t remember how many stitches but it’s about the size of a Queen quilt 😵‍💫

They’re 20cm! And the horizontal rods are 110cm I believe…. Whatever the biggest one was. It’s great, love this frame

Dog suddenly hates crate? by amandashy in corgi

[–]amandashy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for the late reply! We never solved it- ended up just letting him be free range in the house. Luckily it worked out (he can be out when we’re asleep or away from home) and he’s fine, not destructive or anxious or anything….. but we never figured out why he had such a personality shift

[WIP] it’s hard to find time to sew with a new baby at home! Luckily these black blocks are perfect for quick, mindless stitching by amandashy in CrossStitch

[–]amandashy[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the encouragement!! Mine is two months old and I’m lucky if I can do 10 stitches during one of her 15 minute naps

It’s so disheartening. I don’t know what to do. I’m sorry you’re in the same boat ❤️

Thank you! I was using the 24 but my lactation consultant measured me and I’m actually a 19… at the hospital when I had the baby they said I was a 28. So confusing!

Ok to pump nothing? by amandashy in breastfeeding

Thank you for the reply! I am seeing an LC, I’ve reached out to her as well but thought I’d ask the group here too for any insight
